As a Malaysian living abroad, this recipe brings me back home! The laksa paste recipe is spot-on. I added some mock fish balls and it was perfect. The key is really cooking the paste until it's fragrant. Don't skip the laksa leaves if you can find them!
This is incredible! I've never had laksa before and now I'm hooked. The coconut broth is so rich and the spice blend is complex and delicious. Made a double batch because I knew I'd want more!
Really delicious! I used store-bought laksa paste to save time and it was still great. Added extra tofu puffs because they're so good. The lime juice at the end really brightens everything up.
